What is LCH Code?

LCH is a cylindrical representation of the LAB color space, using Lightness, Chroma, and Hue components. Lightness ranges from 0 to 100, Chroma represents color intensity (0 to ~134), and Hue represents the color angle (0-360 degrees). LCH is more intuitive than LAB for color manipulation as it separates lightness from color information. It's particularly useful in color grading, print production, and advanced color correction workflows where precise color control is required.

Structure:

LCH is represented as L (Lightness 0-100), C (Chroma 0-134), and H (Hue 0-360°), providing a cylindrical representation of LAB color space.

Examples:

  • LCH(53, 104, 40) - Pure Red
  • LCH(88, 119, 136) - Pure Green
  • LCH(32, 133, 306) - Pure Blue
  • LCH(100, 0, 0) - White
  • LCH(0, 0, 0) - Black

What is Named Code?

Named colors are predefined color keywords recognized by web browsers and design applications. CSS defines 147 named colors ranging from basic colors like 'red' and 'blue' to more specific ones like 'mediumaquamarine' and 'darkgoldenrod'. Named colors provide an easy, human-readable way to specify common colors without remembering hex codes or RGB values. They're particularly useful for rapid prototyping, educational purposes, and when working with standardized color palettes. Each named color has a corresponding hex value defined by web standards.

Structure:

Named colors are simple text strings representing predefined colors, such as 'red', 'blue', 'forestgreen', etc., as defined by CSS color specifications.

Examples:

  • red - Pure Red (#FF0000)
  • lime - Pure Green (#00FF00)
  • blue - Pure Blue (#0000FF)
  • white - White (#FFFFFF)
  • black - Black (#000000)

Logic behind LCH to NAMED Conversion

LCH to NAMED conversion involves mathematical transformation between color spaces. The conversion process typically uses intermediate RGB values when direct conversion formulas are not available. LCH values are first normalized to standard ranges, then transformed using colorimetric equations specific to each color space. The conversion maintains perceptual color accuracy through proper gamma correction and color space mapping algorithms.

Use-cases of LCH and NAMED

1Color correction and professional imaging: Converting LCH specifications to NAMED format for workflow compatibility
2Cross-platform design: Ensuring color consistency between applications using different color formats

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between LCH and NAMED color formats?
LCH is cylindrical LAB format primarily used for color correction and professional imaging, while NAMED is predefined color names commonly used for rapid prototyping and web development. Each format has specific advantages for different applications.
Are the converted NAMED values accurate for professional use?
Yes, our converter uses industry-standard algorithms to ensure mathematically accurate conversions suitable for professional design and development work.
Can I convert multiple LCH values at once?
Currently our tool converts one color at a time for maximum accuracy. For bulk conversions, you can use the tool repeatedly or contact us for enterprise solutions.
Will the converted color look exactly the same as the original?
Our converter maintains color accuracy within the capabilities of each color space. Some conversions may have minor variations due to color space limitations.
